Any check or credit card transaction rendered to Lakeland Community College in payment of amounts due to the College and dishonored for any reason shall be charged a return payment charge. The student shall not be permitted to register for any subsequent term or obtain grade transcripts or receive grades for the current term until his or her financial obligation has been met.

Lakeland offers an online Tuition Loan Payment Plan to spread the cost of tuition and fees over the term. You can set up automatic installment payments using a credit card or electronic check. You will be able to manage your account online and receive email notifications of changes to your account status. To enroll in a Tuition Loan Payment Plan, log in to myLakeland.

Enroll in a Payment Plan and Set Up Installments

You must first be registered for classes. Then log into myLakeland.

Click the "Student" tab.

In the left-hand column under "myRecords", click on "Billing Center."

Click on "I Agree" to enter the secure website.

Click on "Payment Plan" tab and then click on "Enroll Now."

Select the proper semester and click on "GO."

Follow the screen instructions and prompts such as the "continue" button to enroll in the payment plan. DO NOT enter an amount for the processing fee in the field for down payment, the fee will process AUTOMATICALLY once you have set up a payment method. NOTE:Choosing "Yes, I want to set up payments" is your AUTHORIZATION to process payments AUTOMATICALLY on the due date using the payment method you set up. You will receive a reminder email.

As soon as you read the Tuition Loan Payment Plan Promissory Note and click on "I Agree," the processing fee payment WILL AUTOMATICALLY process.

Students who have received the Offer of Financial Assistance Award Letter, and who have registered for the minimum number of credit hours required to receive the aid, will have their aid automatically applied to tuition charges at the time of registration.

To keep financial aid: the student must attend classes, maintain Standards of Academic Progress, be aware of the freeze dates, and understand what happens when they withdraw.

The student must have a means to cover indirect educational expenses until the electronic refunds are processed.

If a student has not received the results of the application at the time of registration, they should inquire about online tuition loan program.

Non-attendance of classes or notification to the instructor or department does not constitute official withdrawal.

Refunds will not be made for classes in which the student receives a letter grade of FNA (F for no attendance).

Refunds or reduction of indebtedness for withdrawals after the official dates will not be made in cases of failure or inability to attend classes because of changes in business or personal affairs.

Students are still liable for payment of the Tuition Loan Payment Plan.

In extraordinary circumstances wherein a student is forced to withdraw from classes after the refund period, a written appeal may be made requesting special consideration. Appropriate documentation is required with such appeal.

Any outstanding financial obligation to the college will be deducted from any tuition refund.

If a student is receiving financial aid and is scheduled for a tuition refund, that refund may be returned to the appropriate financial aid account.

Students withdrawing from the college may be required to repay all or part of the financial aid received.

Students may request a copy of the refund policy for financial aid recipients from the Financial Aid Office.

Resident of Lake County: to qualify for this tuition category, a student must have lived in the state of Ohio for at least one (1) year, and in Lake County for at least six (6) months.

Ohio resident outside Lake County: a student must have resided in the state of Ohio for at least one (1) year or has met one of the exceptions to the general rule of residency to qualify for this tuition category. (Click here for information about to 3333-1-10 Ohio Student Residency and Tuition Surcharge Purposes Policy.)

Out-of-state or international students: individuals who cannot furnish proof of their classification in either of the above categories are charged out-of-state tuition rates. International students pay the out-of-state rates for the duration of their attendance.

Please note: A change to a Lake County address does not automatically change residency status. Students must submit the Request for Change of Residency Form along with acceptable documentation to the Student Service Center for review and approval by the Registrar.

Fees will ONLY be adjusted prior to or no later than the first day of the term. No mid-semester adjustments will be made. If documentation is presented after the start of the semester the next term will have the updated residency code listed.

Forever Buckeye

Forever Buckeye is a provision under Ohio Law that allows students who graduated from an Ohio high school or completed the final year of instruction at home as authorized under section 3321.04 of the Revised code, to re-establish Ohio residency without the 12-month waiting period formally required to establish permanent domicile. The applicant only needs to provide proof of graduation from an Ohio high school, a permanent address in the state of Ohio, and have legal status to remain permanently in the United States.

Complete the Request for Change of Residency Form and submit the following documents by the above posted deadlines: a) your Ohio high school transcript; and b) your current housing lease, property deed, or notarized affidavit from parents/other. (Please note: A copy of a high school diploma is not sufficient evidence of high school graduation. An Ohio high school does not include GED.) If you are not a U.S. citizen, you must attach copy of supporting documents establishing your current immigration or Visa status.

To be eligible, the immigration documentation that you provide must be current.

A dependent student must also hold an eligible visa status. If a student currently holds an ineligible visa but has paid to adjust his or her visa status through the Department of Homeland Security, and once processed will have an eligible visa status, he or she will need to submit the receipt of an eligible visa type prior to submitting the Online Residency Form.

If you have received approval for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) status, you may be eligible to apply for Ohio residency for tuition purposes. Please submit a current I-797 Notice of Action form, Employment Authorization Document (EAD), Request for Change of Residency form and supporting documents to the Student Services Office.

Senior citizens may audit credit classes at Lakeland and have the instructional fee waived. The Admissions application fee is also waived. (Senior citizens only pay the general, lab and service fees if they audit a class.) See senior citizen registration dates. For more information contact the Admissions Office.

Senior citizens who wish to receive the special rate for auditing a class must come to the Admissions Office with proof of birth date after registering. The application and instructional fees will be waived for senior citizens. For more information contact the Admissions Office.

A senior citizen may take courses on a credit basis if his or her family income is less than 200% of the federal poverty guideline.
